Deflation is a process of erosion where wind removes and transports loose sediment particles from one place to another. It occurs in dry, arid environments where there is limited vegetation to hold the soil in place.
Deflation is caused by erosion, as it involves the movement of soil and sediment by wind. Deposition, on the other hand, refers to the process of sediment being dropped or laid down in a new location.
Wind erosion is the erosional agent that causes deflation, blowouts, desert pavement, and dunes in desert environments. Wind carries and deposits sand particles, creating these distinct landforms through the process of erosion and deposition.
Weathering: disintegration, decomposition, deterioration Erosion: abrasion, corrosion, scouring Deposition: accumulation, sedimentation, deposit
No, erosion and deposition are not the same processes. Erosion involves the movement of sediment or soil by wind, water, or ice, while deposition is the laying down of these sediments in a new location. Erosion typically occurs in one location, while deposition takes place in another location.
Erosion is the process of removing rock particles by wind, water, ice, and gravity. This natural process shapes the Earth's surface over time by wearing down and transporting rock and sediment from one place to another.

deposition
Its a type of erosion, specifically Abrasion, which is a material weathering away at a soild (the rock), and since the wind carries it away, it is Erosion.
